Solution: Sum of Mutated Array Closest to Target
Explore a method to find an integer value that replaces array elements above it to make the array sum closest to a given target. Understand how sorting the array and iterating with careful calculations helps minimize the difference, using a step-by-step approach that balances replacement values for optimal results.

Statement
Given an integer array arr and a target value target, find an integer value such that if all the numbers in arr greater than value are replaced with a value, the sum of the array gets as close as possible to the target.
Choose the smaller value if there’s a tie (two value options are equally close to the targe).
Note: The answer doesn’t have to be a number from the array.
Constraints:
